that's pretty cool! i used to looove my barbies growing up. i feel like barbie has definitely branched out to have different careers since then. i have a couple friends that know miley and even though she has a pretty different public image now.. they always tell me she's a good girl and doesn't do drugs like a lot of other celebs etc. i feel like you never really know what's told to them to do by their publicists and what is really them either.

Thumbs up about the Entrepreneur Barbie~ I think they can still stretch the concept and look further (to be more realistically inspirational and a little less.. pink), but it's a step in the right direction. :)

I agree, Barbie has changed so much, and I definitely think for the better! I am glad that your friends have said that about Miley. I think with all celebrities, we are given many images - those created for them, those that are blown up and glimpses into the real them. I think that is why it is so important to refrain from judging celebrities and using them as role models. I think the same goes for politicians and members of the public eye.

I had to share the Warrior Queen on my page. What an amazing woman! And I agree, Barbie entrepreneur is a great toy for girls, especially with the program. I'm a bit mixed about Miley. I agree, we should call women sluts. But I have to call her public performances immoral and even pornographic. She's a smart business woman finding her way. But I hate that women need to sell their bodies (even if it's just in pictures) to get ahead in their carreers.

LOVE this post. All of the links are so good! That Laci Green one was /great/. Friends keep telling me I'd love her and her honesty, etc... but I have never gotten around to watching her. Go her for trying to inspire healthy self-image!

Way to go Entrepreneur Barbie! I hope this is the start of a further, wide-reaching concept. Plus, that program... yes! Just, so much yes!
